Mesoionic carbenes are a subclass of the family of N-heterocyclic carbenes that generally
feature less heteroatom stabilization of the carbenic carbon and hence impart specific donor …

The emergence of N-heterocyclic carbenes as ligands across the Periodic Table had an
impact on various aspects of the coordination, organometallic, and catalytic chemistry of the …

Nickel plays an important role in areas as diverse as metallurgy, magnetism and biology as
well as in chemical applications such as the catalytic transformation of organic substrates …

This survey of metal–metal (MM) bond distances in binuclear complexes of the first row 3d-
block elements reviews experimental and computational research on a wide range of such …

An emerging area of the nickel N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes and their
applications in homogeneous catalysis is highlighted in the review. The review paints a …

A nickel‐catalyzed site‐selective intermolecular amidation of saturated C (sp3)− H bonds is
reported. This mild protocol exhibits a predictable reactivity pattern to incorporate amide …

The chemistry of N-heterocyclic carbenes, particularly imidazol-2-ylidenes, has been
exhaustively documented in the literature. Amongst the many bond activation reactions …

The present contribution reports experimental and theoretical mechanistic investigations on
a normal‐to‐abnormal (C2‐to‐C4‐bonded) NHC rearrangement processes occurring with …

The synthesis and characterization of a homologous series of T-shaped {MNO} 10 nitrosyl
complexes of the form [M (PR3) 2 (NO)]+(M= Pd, Pt; R= t Bu, Ad) are reported. These …

Abstract Complexes [Ni (Cp)(X)(NHC)] and their ionic derivatives [Ni (Cp)(L)(NHC)]+ have
attracted significant interest in recent years owing to their simple preparation, stability in the …
